School Counseling Resources
Your program fuses school counseling training with a deep understanding of educational justice and its applications in the modern educational landscape. Rigorous fieldwork offers hands-on experience essential for career preparation.
Who are you becoming and how?
As a school counseling student, you are encouraged to continue learning outside of the classroom by taking advantage of events, webinars, conferences, advising sessions, and workshops.
Exploring Fieldwork
Fieldwork resources
The University of Redlands must have a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the fieldwork site before you can begin. Please review our Active Partnership List to determine whether a partnership is in place with your potential site.
If you are seeking a site outside of this list, please be aware, it can take up to 3 months to establish these partners. To begin the process of requesting a partner that is not currently on the Active Partnership List, please fill out the Partnership Interest Form.
View the Application Deadlines table on the Fieldwork page.
The fieldwork handbook contains information about the policies, processes, and procedures related to fieldwork. Since policies change over time, the fieldwork handbook is updated every academic year.
